Finally put the stock SE 18's on

it was nice weather today so i figured what the he11.. perfect fit, except that the front tires rub ever so slightly on the inside plastic piece when turned all the way, but with 245/45's i guess i had to expect it..

thanks man.. i had a chance to take it out earlier and man i love the feel of these Goodyear RS-A's too.. roadnoise aint too bad, the 45 sidewall absorbs a lot of the impact for having 18's and handling is pretty daym good too, but then again i guess anything is better than the winter rims im used to.. but i tell you what, ill take these over the Khumo Ecstas i had on my other rims anyday..

when the wheels are turned all the way to one side or the other, it rubs ever so slightly against the plastic part of the wheel well, but its nothin major..
